U-Turn Paragliders will retain their performance and handling characte-
ristics best if routine care and maintenance are performed. If cleaning is
necessary, use warm water and a soft sponge. If you must use a soft cle-
aning fluid, rinse the fabric thoroughly. Always store your glider in a dry
and safe place away from chemicals. Extended exposure to UV light
tends to increase permeability and fading of the material. Make every
effort to limit the amount of time that your canopy remains in the sun.
Have your glider thoroughly checked by the manufacturer / dealer
after no more than two years or earlier if your glider is used extensively
in rough conditions or terrain. Repairs should be performed by authori-
sed personnel only.
Maintenance and Repairs
The U2 leads the way in paragliding research and development. We
wish you many long and safe flights on your U-Turn U2.
Remember to treat your canopy properly and always fly with respect for
conditions and your capabilities.
Remember that all flying is potentially dangerous and that you must take
responsibility for you own, and your passengers safety.
Fly conservatively with respect to conditions and use ample altitude for
manoeuvring.
Be aware of the responsibility you carry, if you fly with a passenger. Be
even more careful when you check flight conditions.
We also strongly recommend, that you use a certified harness with a
back protection, a certified reserve parachute and a helmet.
